Experience the Ultimate in Wildlife and Luxury at Welgevonden’s Waterberg Game Lodges

Winter may be upon us, but you can still indulge in a bushveld getaway. Experience the ultimate luxury all year round at Welgevonden’s Waterberg game lodges.

Break Away to One of Our Waterberg Bushveld Sanctuaries

Welgevonden Game Reserve, situated in the Waterberg region of Limpopo, is an exceptional destination for those seeking an intimate bushveld safari experience. Our Waterberg game lodges are situated within the UNESCO Waterberg Biosphere Reserve, which is world-renowned for its efforts in biodiversity conservation.

Welgevonden Game Reserve offers a wealth of wildlife, with over 65 mammal species, including the famous Big Five, as well as rare species like cheetah, brown hyena, caracal, aardwolf, and aardvark.

The 36 000ha reserve is located in a malaria-free area, and the temperate climate and high altitude make our Waterberg game lodges an ideal year-round destination.

Some of our conservation initiatives include:

• Elephant management: We keep to five key objectives that are in line with the latest National Norms and Standards for Elephant Management to prioritise the conservation of these gentle giants.
• Lion management: Our main strategy is to imitate the natural factors occurring in a free-ranging lion population that influence population regulation by managing them in smaller reserves as a larger meta-population.
• Blue cranes: The Waterberg area sustains a crucial population of blue cranes that varies between 40 and 70 birds. Five of the 16 known breeding pairs in the Waterberg are found at Welgevonden Game Reserve.
